Adub Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Hey how much did you overclock your processor to. I dont want to take mine too far. Just keep it under the threshold temperature at 100% cpu usage. Idk which quad core that is but I keep my q6600 under 60-65C at full tilt. Say that was the q6600, with that fan i was able to go from 2.4 to 3.0 and keep it under that temp at full tilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adub Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) 71.4 C is the Max Temp (Intel: Q9450) I use Everest to monitor all my temperatures while overclocking and as far as getting that 100% cpu usage on a quad core (or any chip for that matter) I use Prime95. If you have an unstable overclock, you'll find out while running that program. Sorry if you feel I am talking down to you btw, I just don't know how much oc'ing you have done. I just recently got into the oc'ing game and I have found those programs to help a lot. Head over to Overclock.net and check out similar builds. They are pretty cool over there and have some great info. I mostly check out the water cooled setups, people go off on some of their systems. Edit: Changed SuperPi to Prime95...Linked the wrong program originally Edited June 19, 2008 by Adub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
